About

Pastoral burnout and dropout have reached crisis levels across the church. Ancient Wisdom, Living Mission presents a grant-funded, research-based response to this challenge. Supported by the Lilly Endowment through the D. James Kennedy Institute of Reformed Leadership, Michael A. Milton introduces the Pastoral Training Model-a comprehensive, post-seminary framework grounded in biblical theology, historical wisdom, and peer-reviewed research. Integrating apprenticeship, scholarly reflection, pastoral family care, peer support, and local church formation, the model offers a practical pathway for sustaining pastors and strengthening congregational health. Written for pastors, church leaders, and theological educators, this book provides a hopeful vision for shepherding the shepherds for lifelong ministry.
